At the end of the last book, I was so in hopes that Parker Williams wouldn't leave us wondering what happened to Tom after Brian, his husband of 25 years died from his cancer. I didn't want to think of Tom wondering around in that big house with only his memories of Brian. Seems that Brian didn't want that for Tom either. Brian and their friend went to some extraordinary lengths while he was alive to see that that would never happen. It would probably not ever happen outside the pages of the book, but it added a beautiful touch to the story. Tom and Aiden's story is one of the most beautiful, heart wrenching things I have EVER read. Makes you believe that magic maybe is real, and that heartache can, and will heal with a partner that will give you time, patience and love, I loved all of this series, but I think this one is without a doubt, the very best. It made me cry in the first chapter, actually the first paragraph. and continued to get better. If I keep reading these types of stories, I'm going to have to diffidently check on buying lots of Kimberly Clarke stock...but I want Parker William to keep writing them. ( )
